In that case the patch should not be applied. Any change but the very simplest has some risk. Risk should only be undergone if there is demonstrable benefit.

It simplifies the code. 1) It replaces 2 comparisons in FT_MAX and FT_MIN with a single one. 2) It implements a simpler and better check for closeness of control points to the chord There is no gain or loss in speed and the quality is the same (see images). More on 2). Currently the control points are required to be between the parallel lines through the chord ends. The proposed check requires that they are inside a circle. Given an earlier check for the perpendicular distance to the chord, these are actually almost equivalent. So the whole patch is just a clean up.
